Day 18: Insert Blog Here
So much to talk about today...and I'm too damn tired 😛 Yup. This blog will have to wait to be filled out until tomorrow. But! Here's what happened in glorious bullet-point form (also, so I can remember what to go back and fill in: -Batkid -Mission work week:...
Today’s Track: “Clash” by Caravan Palace
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sBZdSHAIZI Cheeky. Gypsy Electro Swing. There is a name for this stuff, I've found. Of course there is. I have to say that I love gypsy swing, or parisian jazz - it has a very different feel to it than big band american swing, it's more...
Day 17: Gravity
Finally! The Ho and I went and saw it today in all its 3D glory. And it was pretty glorious, that 3D. I've always been partial to Cuarón as opposed to his two Mexican contemporaries, even though I love them too. He's had an eye for that fluid continuous-like camera...
Day 16: City on Fire
Tonight, Liz and I watched what I guess was the season finale of Tony Bourdain's new show on CNN, "Parts Unknown" where he visited the city of Detroit. It was stunning. The city, I mean. The show too, obviously, but really the city. I'm on record as saying that I...
Day 15: The Beard is Dead; Long Live the Mustache
I did it. I shaved the beard of doom. In its place is a glorious mustache. I know, I kind of tipped that it was likely to happen a couple days ago, but at the point, I wasn't actually sure I was going to do it. Yes, I do realize that I've now written TWO entries about...
Day 14: Two weeks!
I think this is the longest I've ever written consecutively...which now that I see it staring back at me in unforgiving black and white isn't very long! Not very long at all. But hey, it's still an Ira Heinichen record. *cue adoring applause* As I'm sitting here,...
Day 13: Breaking Through
Breaking through...where to begin on that topic? Been thinking about that a lot today. It's a subject that never really goes away down here in LA. Everyone's always looking to break through into *something*. I am no different, I'm afraid. I need a win, guys. I'm...
Today’s Track: “Catgroove” by Parov Stellar
Guys. I'm obsessed. Obsessed! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJFrqOMgvBI Seriously...this song is from 2010. WHERE WAS I??? And I can't help it, it's a two-fer because this next one, I think, is even better than the gateway posted up above....
Day 12: Clean Sheets
I'm sitting up in bed here, getting ready to write some amazingly deep or ponderous blog about amazingly deep and ponderous things...and all I can think about is how fucking amazing the clean sheets that I'm slipped between feel. You guys know what I'm talking about;...
Day 11: Beardtastic!
The beard is out of control. This! This is what happens, people, when you work from home! Back when I was working at the good ol' Lasagna Barn every day, I had to keep that ish under control. Not anymore, and it's just...
